Contest Brief

We require a logo created for our business.
This logo is to be used across our entire business, from stationery, website, marketing, apparel, merchandise, signage etc.
Currently the business name is Avondale Motors Ltd. And as the name suggests, it is primarily involved in the automotive parts industry.
The business has been established for some 40+ years.
Due to proposed diversification, it is anticipated Motors will be removed from the business name. Hence name will eventually be Avondale Ltd.
In order to start building long term brand awareness, the logo must place emphasis on the name ‘Avondale’, but for now include ‘Motors’.
At a future date, ‘Motors’ will need to be removed from the logo, so please keep this in mind during initial design.
In addition to its current operations, moving forward, it is anticipated the business will have subsidiaries involved in property development, home loans, automotive sales & finance, and internet services. None of these need be part of the initial logo.
However, our expectation is for an elegant logo, that will be neutral across the broad range of services Avondale will provide.
We are open to suggestions from you as the designer, about this. We are also open to your professional suggestions in terms of color selection, effects, etc.
We seek a designer that has extensive experience, a proven track record and is able to provide a substantial portfolio to confirm this.
Please note this will be an ongoing engagement, as we will continue to require your expertise. As such we are seeking a professional that will be able to provide such ongoing commitment.
We look forward to your responses.
